My Bedroom Window

I woke up this morning, and looked out my window.

And saw a concord jet, not in the sky but just 100 feet away. Just sitting there.

Behind the concord, was a legion of helicopters. Big ones, small ones, fat ones, white ones, black ones, green ones.

For the average person, waking and looking out the bedroom window to see a bunch of aircraft, that had not been there the night before, would be an surprising sight.

It is weird sight, when you are used to seeing ocean, but not an odd one.

It is one of the fantastic aspects of my life. I get up every morning, and with excitement, opening my curtains to a sight I have never seen before.

Today, it was an aircraft carrier:
